You had me at ..."Friend Request"

(The title was really the subject of one of Ben's emails!! haha! awwh)

I think it's known I added my husband on Facebook. I seem to remind everyone when that time comes around to reminisce again because that was such an exciting [and mysteriously freaky] time in life. We'll be 85 and I'll be like, "remember 60 whatever years ago, today..." This time it's been three years ago today that I found that hottie in some Facebook album, and randomly added him. Score.

Then I denied it. lol

"Oh please, I think you should just admit that you won a bet and as a prize you were able to be my new friend! This whole 'I added you but don't remember' line is kinda cheesy! I've heard that the direct 'hi, my name is _____, so nice to meet you' works just fine but this not so subtle 'accident' is kinda fun too! Haha! Jk! Ok ...You have more shoes than many small countries, you have a ridiculously rad music video and like to lie about being an online predator. What else should I know, before I develop a crush?"

I wrote a [sappy slash boring] song and he wrote me a poem. The day I met him in person, 2/20/2009, he was sitting at the airport, hoodie zipped all the way up, baseball hat pulled down, totally scouting me out on the escalator before I could spot him. Truth!! And you thought I was shallow for adding him purely off his looks. lol

I like you a lot Ben. Thanks for giving this online predator a chance. :)

I think I've posted this poem before, but I think it deserves a spot in two blogbooks? My husband always makes me laugh.

"Uh oh"

"Something is wrong,

Like a man in a thong.

I don't know what it is,

Wtf, what the shiz?

My mind can't focus,

On all my hocus pocus.

The mountain of work is calling,

But still I find I'm falling.

Where is my head at?

Plz come back, I need u stat!

Why can't I think?

Get me a drink,

I need some h2 oh,

I'm moving way too slow.

Oh wait, put down that tissue,

I know what's my issue.

The reason for my blank stare,

Its sitting right there.

I want so bad to take a look,

At my effing facebook.

To see if there's some emails,

From sexy sweet miss Hales!!

"1.27.2009" has a very creative name, indeed. The song has some tweaking/dynamic changes that one day I will work on, but it is the one I wrote at the time so it has some silly sentimental value. If I feel both ambitious and patient, I will one day orchestrate it.

Tomorrow is the 10k race and we have recruited some friends and it will be a lot of fun. I have never run in tights and Ben has never run in women's shorts. And I highly doubt Ryan has run in pink shorts before. Doesn't a Retro Run sound like fun?? You should join us!!

I met my boyfriend through match.com. NEVER thought I would find love online, always thought online dating is only for very desperate people. I lost a bet and HAD to be on match.com for 3 months. On my very last day, we met, that was 3.5 years ago and he is the best thing that ever happened to me :)
